Thanks everyone for the kind words and tips. I came into work today and checked my brain sheets from last week and I did leave the box to document stopping the lasix Unchecked. The patient is still here and I verified I didn’t document it being stopped, the system wouldn’t let me back chart a note so many days behind so I asked my manager and she told me just put a note for today in documented as late entry with the correct date and time the lasix was stopped, so that’s what I did. A couple other nurses were saying they wouldn’t of even said anything as it hadn’t been documented a new bag had been started since 0600 the day before, and a bag only lasts about 10 hours. But I feel a moral obligation to make sure the chart is as accurate as I can make it. Perhaps I care too much? I'm trying to not stress so much about things at work. I have redone my brain sheets so I’m hoping that helps.

I’ve been a med-surg RN for 5 years now and started a new job about 6 months ago, still med-surg. I feel like here lately I am extremely anxious, always thinking about work, and worried about making mistakes. I worked last Thursday and realized Sunday (on my off days) that I forgot to document I stopped an IV lasix drip on a patient I received as a downgrade around 1600 on Thursday. I know I put the order in and stopped it but do not remember documenting the fact I actually stopped it. I have been told I only have 24hours after shift ends to fix documentation so I cannot fix what happened last Thursday. I am worried I will get in trouble for this, as I am pretty positive I didn’t document I stopped it. Lately I feel like any error I make will cost me my license and I am constantly worried about it. I go over my shifts constantly on my off days and then cannot remember what I did and didn’t document and get worried about missing something (how I realized I may of forgot to document the lasix stop time). I know I do everything I should do, but worry about missing the documentation for it. I have never had this issue before at any of the other facilities I have worked at. I do use brain sheets but when I run in a patients room and then another’s, I forget to mark down everything I do. Here lately I noticed I may have forgot to document IV stop times on 2 of my patients. I feel like I am done with nursing. The stress and anxiety is killing me. I do have my MSN but have no interest in utilizing it at all either. When I realize I may of forgot to document something it makes me wonder what else I have forgot and that causes me to get very anxious. I want to quit but my husband thinks I am just being overly whiny about it all and should stick with it. I’m not sure what to do ?

Thanks for the info, I'm going to inquire about it at the financial aid office. My situation is a bit odd. My husband is stationed at a base within 40miles of the school so the school considers me instate but I'm legally a Texas resident who lives in Georgia. If I don't get it no biggie, I still qualify for other grants.

Yes ma'am. I'm not a Northeast Florida resident.

NOOO! I don't qualify for CareerSource. Sucks.

didnt get anything and still don't see it. Anyone else find it?

i can't find this page. Could you possibly invite me? Kayla Morgart. Thanks!

What is the name of the Facebook page? nvm I see it.

Thank you!

Can I get those notes as well beatrice91? My email is [email protected]. Thanks!

No. My husband stole them all .

? About the uniforms. It stays we must have the stuff by August 25th but then it says Meridys won't ship it till Sept 14. Am I reading this wrong? It makes no sense.

After a nice long beautiful day of fishing I came home to a large white envelope in my mailbox. I'm in for days!!!

Mine was fixed the day I turned in my packet, but it was the 3rd or 4th time they "fixed" it.

If they screw up your residency and have you in the system as out of state. I'm not home to check the mail and I am super nervous that they didn't fix my residency and I won't get in even though I applied with 220 points.
